Default Crashed my Kyosho Mustang ... How to rebuild?

Hello,

I crashed my Kyosho mustang on its first flight due to an engine failure. The front of the fuselage is destroyed as well as 1/3 of the wing[]
How can I rebuild the wing ? Is there a way to get the profile of the ribs from the other half of the wing ? I think that I have a better idea how to fix the fuselage. Is the mustang from Great Planes similar ? I know that I can get the plans for it ?

Thanks,

Le fou

Downlaod them to your hard drive. Then push the "post reply" button. In that window you have a "upload images" at the lower left corner. It will open another box. Push "browse" and you can go to where you've downloaded them and click on them. The rest you'll see as you go through it. It will tell you when they are successfully downloaded.

I always collect and save "all" the pieces from a crash site. If nothing else, you can use them for patterns to rebuild with.

If your damage is as bad as it looks, your in for a BIG surprise when you go to buy the replacement parts. The Gee Bee is worse for costs. $140.00 to replace cowl and wheel pants. I did it just so I could sell the worthless piece. Two flights both ending upside down wrecking those parts. Were all here to learn in life, I just learned it the hard way. You should see the "nasty-gram" I sent to GP for selling those parts at such an outrageous price. $80 for pants,$ 50 for the cowl. NO MORE KYOSHO ! MM.
